Toasted almond and toffee notes mingle into ripe lemon and pear in this silky, cream-textured white. Judiciously oaked and luscious yet bright eyed in fruit character, it’s a smart village-level Chassagne-Montrachet with a steely, lingering finish. Ready now, the wine should drink well through 2029.

The 2022 Chassagne-Montrachet (Maison Louis Jadot) is a strong performance for this sizable cuvée. Exhibiting aromas of buttered pears, yellow orchard fruit and mirabelle plums, it's medium to full-bodied, layered and seamless, with a satiny, giving profile that will make friends on release.
